Yet another "tell" that there is nothing criminal to be found in Trump's tax returns. Otherwise, Cy Vance would be sticking around.

There is enough government spending waste to pay off the debt. These people contribute to the waste.

I suspect that Mr. Vance is more concern is about hr handled the Jeffrey Epstein affair. If he had run, his opponent would have found it easy to give that scandal the attention it deserves.

I suspect that Mr. Vance is more concern is about how he handled the Jeffrey Epstein affair. If he had run, his opponent would have found it easy to give that scandal the attention it deserves.

He will be remembered in history, if at all, as a little man. An A-hole, but a little man.

He’s likely retiring because he had an epiphany about how futile and purposeless his career is after spending months trying to parse Trump’s taxes - which are at a sophisticated level far above his (and most everyone’s) intellectual abilities and resources. It’s certainly not the rabbit hole that morons should ever venture in to.

Vance is a corrupt official, an ally of Cuomo.

Very likely he does not want to be around for long when/if Cuomo goes down.

He perfected the art of the shakedown of City merchants which sold ordinary pocket knives, and prosecuted tens of thousands of people for possession or ordinary pocket knives.

Yep. Something is making him get out, and he will be there long enough to start indicting Trump.

Either he’s running for governor soon, or he’s running for his life from the torch-and-pitchfork Cancel Culture set.
